→Investigation 5: How do you use ssh to tunnel X.
{{Admon/tip| SELinux | SELinux may prevent ssh from accessing your home directories on Fedora 1 because you created a new filesystem there. You can reset the security context of the /home directory with this command: <code>restorecon -Rv /home</code>}}
{{Admon/tip | fedora1 VM iptables and ssh service | You may need to adjust the firewall on your fedora1 host to complete this section, and verify that the sshd service is running on that VM.}}
You can also use ssh to tunnel window and bitmap information. Allowing us to login to a remote desktop host and run a Xwindows application such as <code>gedit</code> or <code>firefox</code> and the application will run on the remote host but be displayed on the local host.
